See this: http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/get+ahold+of
Get a hold of someone - reach them, contact them, communicate with them
Get hold of someone (also from the free dictionary)
get hold of:
1. To come into possession of; find: Where can I get hold of a copy?
2. To communicate with, as by telephone: tried to get hold of you but the line was busy.
3. To gain control of. Often used reflexively: You must get hold of yourself!
You can see that #2 means the same as "get ahold of" but it also has other meanings. |
